The Devils Chocolate Cake with Peanut Butter Mousse

After 12 or so attempts at making a vegan cake with no funky aftertaste, Selange Giannetto, a trained culinary chef, but self-taught pastry chef, hit the jackpot. Just to make sure, the St. Charles, Ill., resident asked all sorts of people to try it. Most of them didn’t believe it was vegan. This recipe received an honorable mention in our 2008 Reader Recipe Contest.
